Because gas particles in the air like particles of all fluids are constantly moving and bumping into things, they exert pressure. The pressure exerted by the air in the atmosphere is greater close to Earth's surface and decreases as you go higher above the surface.
<u>Explanation</u>:
- Fill roughly one-third of a cup with water. Then, cover the mouth of the cup completely with a flat, hard cardboard. Using your hand to keep it in place, turn the cup upside down. When you remove your hand, the the cardboard stays in place.
-
One would expect that due to gravity, the water will fall, and even the cardboard will. However, it does not, which means that something must be applying an upward force on the cardboard. This is nothing other than air pressure, which applies a force across the surface of the cardboard in an upward direction.
- Thus we can demonstrate that air exerts pressure, because otherwise, the water would have fallen.
Answer: 1.32 m/s^2
Explanation:
Centripetal acceleration is given by the formula
a = ( v^2 ) / r
where a is centripetal acceleration, v is velocity and r is radius.
We know that,
v = 5 m/s
r = 19m
Now,
a = ( v^2 ) / r
a = ( 5^2 ) / 19
a = 25 / 19
a = 1.32 m/s^2
Cold temperature can't "flow" into a warmer object, in this case, the person's hand. The heat energy of the hand gets transferred to the colder object, the ice.
Answer:
I. a, c, f and h
II. e
III. b, d, g and i
IV. i
Explanation:
I. Chemical symbols are simple abbreviations used to represent various elements or compound. They consist entire of alphabet.
For the diagram given above, the labelled parts which represent chemical symbol are: a, c, f and h
II. Coefficients are numbers written before the chemical symbol of elements or compound.
For the diagram given above, the labelled part which represent Coefficient is: e
III. Number of atoms of element present in a compound is simply obtained by taking note of the numbers written as subscript in the chemical formula of the compound.
For the diagram given above, the labelled part which represent the number of atoms of the element are: b, d, g and i
IV. When no number is written as subscript in the formula of the element in the compound, it means the element has just 1 atom in the compound.
For the diagram given above, the labelled part which indicates that only 1 atom of the element is present is: i
